So I'm in Vegas for ten days and I don't gamble, what else to do?

[Hugh R]

Got nothing against gambling, just never got into it. Also, I know they don't build those great casinos by giving $ away. I've walked up and down the Strip, Wifey says no titty bars so what else to do??? Indoor gun range, I'll look into that, Hoover Dam, done that. Las Vegas speedway for driving a race car, not enough $ in my wallet. Going to see Tabs and Jordi for lunch on Wednesday at the Bellagio. I'm more or less working days on Race to Witch Mountain which we're shooting a portion of here, which is why I'm here.

Sounds crazy, but the best sushi I ever had in my life is in Vegas. It's at the Wynn. It's called Okada. Pricey, but amazing. I've been there many times, always exceptional.

[TerryH]

golf, car museums, dinner shows,...... lose wife go to strip club.

[Palum6o]

Don't know if its still there at the Bellagio but the O show was really good. You can also rent a Ferrari for a few hours.

[Steve Carlton]

Try to see "O" first choice, "Mystere" second. Even if they tell you it's sold out, find out when to call back for cancellations.

[Hugh R]

I'll look into "O" the wifey comes in on Wednesday through Sunday, then I'm on my own through next Thursday. Crazy travel schedule. I get back to El Aye next Thursday night (ten days from now) and the following Monday I go to Boston again for another show. In June I'll be away 24 days.

Moses, I'll check out the sushi place at the Wynn when the wifey comes to town. Love having a corporate credit cards. But they are a little pickey on expenses.

Fireworks! You can get the big mortars there.

[Rick Lee]

Go drive out to Valley of Fire. Best kept secret in the area. Isn't there a great car museum in LV too? Never seen it, but I think I've heard about it.

[BlueSkyJaunte]

Penn & Teller? They still playing?

[fintstone]

According to the Review Journal, Monty Python’s Spamalot at the Wynn is the #1 show in Vegas…and ends July 13…so see it while you can

BlueManGroup at the Venetian is also supposed to be good.

Women seem to like Mama Mia at Mandalay Bay

What abou music? Personally I would go see The Lovin Spoonful which is playing at the Suncoast 6-8 Jun...but I am an old guy that likes his oldies. There are lots of different types available though:
Earth Wind and Fire at the Hilton Jun 6 and 7
Kenny Chesney with Leann Rimes at the MGM Grand on Jun 6
Tanya Tucker at Buffalo Bill’s on Jun 7
L.A. Guns at the Sunset on Jun 7
Sex Pistols at The Joint on Jun 7

Have fun!

Might be cool to see SpeedRacer in IMAX at the Palms.

I am not a gambler either, but I love Vegas and even got married there.
We might gamble about $50 worth on one night, but once I lose that (sometimes in less than 15 minutes) I am pretty much tired of gambling. I would much rather spend the money on other things that give me more value.

There are day trips to hoover dam, red rock canyon, and the grand canyon.
All very nice to visit.

If you don't have a full day to spare, then I would recommend you tour the different hotels. You can easily spend 1 full day just walking through 2-3 hotels.
They are amazing. The Wynn has a good Ferrari store and Ferrari/Maserati dealership. For $20 you can get in and walk around it.

Mandalya bay has a great shark exibit.

Ceasars and Bellagio are fantastic hotels to look at landscaping and architecture. Plus they both have good shopping areas.

I've rented a 1996 Porsche 911 cab and a 2000 Porsche boxster for $500 for 24 hours. They are great fun when you take them out into the desert and drive around red rock canyon. If interested just look up RAV in vegas. They have a good website with all of the available cars.

Ten days in Vegas is a bit much though. My wife and I are done with the scene after about four days. Hopefully you are in a decent hotel. I would suggest you just relax for a day or two at the pool.

Also fun are the ATV tours of Valley of Fire. Not terribly expensive either.

Renting a Harley for a day and riding through Red Rock Canyon or to Lake Mead or ??? is about $150 IIRC. Jet ski or boat rental on Lake Mead is another option.

I'm not much of a gambler either, but spend way too much time in LV.

You go to Las Vegas Motor Speedway and do this:
Fulfilling that need for speed

Any interest in pinball?

Did you go to the Imperial Palace and see the car collection on the 5th floor? It is free w a coupon or if a member of AAA.

Go fire full-auto machine guns at the Gun Store

Fremont street experience downtown

check out the voodoo lounge outdoor deck at the top of the rio for a great view of the city

[Porsche-O-Phile]

Lots of very cool (and expensive) things to do in Vegas whether you gamble or not.

[JavaBrewer]

If you stay in one of the Mega hotel/casinos then food and adult beverages are really expensive. How expensive? A glass of wine at an outdoor wine bar in Del Mar, overlooking the ocean, is 1/2 the cost of a similar glass at Mandalay Bay. Dinner was a Cobb salad (wife), Rib/chicken platter (me), bacon cheeseburger (son), chicken fingers and fries (daughter), 2 sodas, and 2 glasses of wine...$90 not including gratuity.
